Strategy Round 3: Trades
- Thread starter Tamuhawk
- Start date
Sounded like it’s something that he’ll get over eventually. May continue to put in 85-100 type scores in the short term but once fit, could push that 110+ range which we would’ve been expecting.
Don’t quite agree that he has only downside. Will lose say 20-30k but still has upside of 110+ scoring in a few rounds once fit. Score 65 odd in his first half against the Tigers from memory so elite scoring potential is still there.
Likely to keep in the short term and re-assess. With cash lost minimal, decision doesn’t necessarily need to be made this week (as opposed to say a Neale type who may lose 100-120k in 2 weeks).

Still not sure how to go about trades this week.
Trade number 1 will be a dropped rookie (likely Scott) > Jordon
Trade number two I have so many options on premium corrections: Duggan, Taranto, Fyfe, Neale, Cripps
I don't really subscribe to the notion of trading Neale or Cripps at this stage.
Fyfe missing a week hurts but his scoring has been okay so probably not worth trading.
Taranto and Duggan might still come good and arent going to lose too much value so not sure if it's just worth holding onto them and waiting to see if they can clean up their disposals.

Neale > Macrae
Ely Smith / Sharp > Tex
Holding Fyfe (who I'm not overly enthused about either with only 1 centre bounce attendance, but potentially if Treacy comes in, maybe he will get some further CBA's in future)
Neale's "back" injuries are enough to put me off... and Macrae is the only midfielder I really like (over Oliver/Steele/Titch) - I can still see some issues with the high stoppage/clearance players, but Dogs uncontested style and Macrae's outside ability encourages me.
I could go Smith/Sharp to Jordon, but I'm not overly enthused with him either, Viney was eased into the Round 2 match and will play more TOG/CBA's next game. Tex should make the same amount of $$ and theoretically score better. If I didn't have 200K spare + other issues anyway, definitely worth getting Jordon over Berry/Warner imo. Warner should benefit again this week with Rowbottom out though.
No idea why Ely Smith wasn't flown down this week... will bite the bullet and lose him over Sharp, who at least could get a price rise (medical sub hoepfully!?) and may be useful later in the year as a D/M.
Phillips another potential issue of mine, but there's probably not as much urgency to get rid of him this early, his break even is 90 so no harm in holding.
Would really love to hold trades next week... touch wood!

Hope not.
Ziebell could be a concern too.
Nicks wasn't too pleased after the Adelaide game , hopefully he doesn't make a example of some at the selection table.
Been reading Lewis could come in for Koschitzke.
Might be rookie nightmare already.
Was just thinking if Brisbane only have 29 players in Melbourne (Berry & McInerney injured) Sharp might be close to getting a recall soon.
Maybe he has some schoolwork to catch up on.
Could even be the medical sub.
I just need to see Fridays teams before deciding what to do.

Just traded Sharp to Jordan, should be my only trade, have Fyfe out, backing Neale to bounce back off the turf, literally. Unsure if Bergman is challenged for his spot, as mentioned Scott could be dropped, hoping Rowe plays and the coach doesn't make a statement. Putting extra sticky tape on Daniher and Fantasia this week. 😆
You are ready for Round 4 by the sounds of that.
Wish I owned JordOn & Warner from the start (probably went too heavy up forward) but alas I don't.
Tempted by Walker , but actually would even like to bring in 2 of Cumming , Jiath & Markov to sure up my defence.
BUT I will stick to my plan.
In: JordOn & Warner
Out: probably Scott & Sharp
Just have a nagging feeling that Adelaide or North might throw us a curve ball tomorrow.
Neale will be fine , a needle can do wonders.
Pendlebury no doubt will ask how he is feeling during the game , or just ask Adams , Crisp & Maynard to put him arse up at every opportunity 😉
Not much on the Port front , Rozee is playing , discussion whether they play 4 talls forward , decision on whether Rockliff is in the 22 or goes back to SANFL.
Great stuff Professor , sit tight Round 4-6 then the action begins , all out attack.
